Avicii's Music To Burst Back Onto ARIA Charts Following DJ's Death

Staff Writer

Check out the midweek figures.

More Avicii Avicii

Following his shock passing last week, a number of Avicii's albums and hit singles are set to re-enter the top end of the ARIA charts. 

According to midweek figures, both of the Swedish DJ's studio albums — 2013 debut True and 2015's Stories — should push back into the top 10 and top 20 respectively, while his 2014 remix LP is on target for a place in the top 30. 

Meanwhile, A Perfect Circle's Eat The Elephant and J Cole's KOD are the favourites to land at #1 on the Albums chart, with top three debuts expected for both. 

Over on the Singles chart, Avicii's global hit Wake Me Up is primed for a top ten placing after it peaked at #1 in the country following its release in 2013. 

Other tracks from the late producer likely to appear on the Singles list this week includes Levels (top 20), as well as Hey Brother and Without You feat. Sandro Cavazza (both top 30).

After topping the chart last week for the very first time, Drake's Nice For What will already be pressed to hold #1, as Ariana Grande's No Tears Left To Cry is predicted to debut in the top three. 

J Cole will cap off a big week with five tracks from his surprise LP set to debut on the chart, including KOD, (top 20), Photograph and ATM (both top 30), Motiv8 and Kevin's Heart (both top 40).
